Notes

Hi bibliophiles!

Just a quick note to say these two things:

We now have a @the_perksinourstars Instagram page! Here you can find shelfies (and other book pictures) along with book quotes and other things! To be featured on our page tag your shelfies #theperksinourstars ! Click on the link at the top of this page to be transported into magical unicorns and become a book dragon.

Also, I wanted to add this:

I use public transport a fair amount, and there is usually someone with a book or reading, especially on long journeys. But the other day, I saw THREE people reading on a train. Yes, three. I didn't see all of the titles, but there was a teenage guy reading the hobbit. Really.

As I sat there, I thought about how sometimes, with the hype of gadgets, social media and gaming, we book-lovers really feel alone. I'm not saying I don't love the modern world, I am a big daily internet user and gamer (fact about me there!), and I enjoy them as much as the next person. But basically, please don't feel alone.

There is definitely a surviving community of bookworms (and dragons), so don't be afraid to admit you are one.

We are readers, and we are proud.

-Beth

Happy Reading!
